Efficient LED UV Curing Technology for Coating Industries.
LED UV CURING SYSTEM
EFFICIENT LED UV CURING TECHNOLOGY FOR COATING INDUSTRIES
LED technology has become a real alternative solution in the sphere of light curing. To date, the efficiency of both the individual LED’s and the system as a whole have been increased, resulting in further improved drying quality. Simple integration, dispensing with ozone and mercury and the lack of thermal radiation favor a broad range of applications for this technology in industrial curing.
Whether in the curing of printing inks, adhesives or varnishes on various substrates – LED UV curing is seeing high growth rates in coating industries. However, distribution of the two technologies differs widely in the various segments. Overall, LED systems are most frequently used in inkjet and adhesives applications.
WHAT IS LED UV CURING
LED UV systems are used for materials that contain photo initiators, for example in applications for curing adhesives in bonding or sealing processes or for drying materials such as inks, lacquers, paints, and clear coats. Especially UV light, leads to photo polymerization or radiation curing.
